"You're lying," She whispered as she stumbled back a step,

"Am I?" I tapped a finger on my lips. "Have you mated? Have you kissed? Has he ever touched you other than what was necessary? Or has he been politely affectionate? Holding your hand, patting your head, and keeping a distinct distance between the two of you." I was playing with her head.
